Re: Lighten Up On Snyder

I have posted my feelings before as an outsider ..............,look DS seems like a nice person and I'm sure he has a good heart but this is not about that.People see his actions as with suing the old ladies......yes he did it twice and things of that nature and judge him.To me his problem is ...he won't hire football people(fire Vinnie)..............IE a .....GM and then backaway.you can not play fantasy football in the NFL......with the NFL.

This is where I think a lot of the Snyder-hate from the outside come in. Do you actually think Dan Snyder went down to the county courthouse and filed a lawsuit against fans? Do you think that he even sat in a meeting and said, 'we need to sue our season ticket holders' or do you think that a decision was made by some managers and lawyers to sue people not performing to a contract they signed? It amazes me how otherwise reasonably intelligent people get caught up in the way something is reported in the media. It doesn't take a genius to figure out a middle management business decision and an executive order from the owner.

No, but do you actually think he was unaware of the decision to pursue judgements against ticket holders? It's not like it was an isolated incident.

Truthfully, I'll bet he had no clue. You have to think of things on a global scale from an organizational point of view. That's equivalent to the CEO of Chevrolet knowing the brand of body paint they use on their cars. While it's relevant to a revenue stream, it's insignificant to their overall responsibilities. Snyder likely only deals in discussions that impact millions of dollars, not a couple of thousand.

In a sense ......yes.Think back to the situation with the lady who lived across the street from FED EX....a security team dressed just like PG county Police told her she had to pay for a bus to the other side of the stadium,the women sued and won and in court there it was proven that the order to make fans (just not her)take the bus becuase he didn't want the fans walking from the outside and not making any money off them from parking other places came from the office of the President of the Washington Redskins,you really think he didn't know about that?
